Hi Scott
I have just had the wheel bearings off four spare vertical links, I was
looking for a pair to rebuild for my Dolomite, all four had wear on the back
face that made them unserviceable, this is caused by the bearings spinning
and wearing back into the link. If the wear is bad enough the disc will hit
the calliper, if yours is doing this, it needs sorting now, if it is only
rubbing on the pads, go to the next tighter hole and test drive it, then
lift the wheel and see how it spins.

Graham.
